Presenting the Huskinois!

A marriage of the Siberian Husky and Belgian Malinois, the Huskinois might very well be the world's next best guard dog. Combining the resilience of her dad (a Husky) and the guarding traits of her mom (a Malinois) the unnamed pup carries with her the promise of serving a variety of purposes. If logic serves correctly, the Huskinois will grow up to excel in both the hunt and the chase.

While breeders have attempted crossing the Husky and Malinois in the past, this is allegedly the first pup that has successfully lived beyond birth, reports the Metro UK. Says the puppy's owner, Darren Debenham, "She has doubled in size over the first few days. I can't wait to see what she turns out like."

Believe us, neither can we.

Malionois, are generally used for police work also protection such as watchdogs and known for there bite work . Having several friends who train and own them on the force, the time and patients which is put into the training goes goes with out saying is unbelievable .Watching these powerfull animal's doing there job with such power and bravery shoked me at first. Most of the use officer's use chec for language commends, seeing the dogs climb ladder's and jump over car's, take hold of a man with razor sharp teeth and pull him to the ground can be startling to watch.. They are trained to only release on comand if trained for bite work.
